point is we need to remove ourselves with anything from that period if we want to move forward. It's inevitable that it'll happen, and the quicker CFG do it the better. JVS can take the colours with him on the way out.

Fair enough.  We definitely need to get rid of Mooy.  Nothing worse than a Heart player riding on CFG's coat-tails for these two seasons.

Agreed.  Ban it and give JVS a new 10 year deal.  That will solve everything.

Yeah bloody oath, any other coach might have bought Mooy on with half an hour to go. JVS OUT

The Away Kit with the sash use to resemble certain loses as well FWIW.

Also if they take away the Red and Stripes as an Away Kit then I will never ever attend a game again... by that I mean I will write this all over the Internet about if they do as such and then after they do as such including twitter and FB posts boasting about not renewing my membership.

But then I will still rock up for basically every home game.

I am not saying get rid but don't any of you think that we seem to lose vital away games and we are wearing those red and white colours it has been very disheartening to watch what seems to be a pub side turn up to play our away fixtures or some of them anyway.

Teams in red win more

Researchers found that those who wear red tops, jackets or clothing score 10 per cent more in any competition than if they were in another colour.

Experts believe that red could make individuals and teams feel more confident as well as being perceived by others as more aggressive and dominant.

The findings could explain why Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal, have been so successful,. On the other hand, the results could suggest that the success of those teams has given those that wear the red colour more confidence.

United and Liverpool have won a record 18 league titles, while Arsenal have had an uninterrupted run in the top flight for longer than any other team.

England's victorious World Cup team in 1966, led by Bobby Moore wore red, instead of their usual white, and have not won a World Cup or European Championship since.

The study, by German sports psychologists at the University of Munster, was reported in New Scientist magazine. They showed video clips of taekwondo bouts to 42 experienced referees. One combatant wore blue, the other red.

They then showed them the same clips but digitally manipulated the clothing to swap the colours. The fighters wearing red were given an average of 13 per cent more points than when they were blue.

"If one competitor is strong and the other weak, it won't change the outcome of the fight," said Norbert Hagemann, who led the study. "But the closer the levels, the easier it is for the colour to tip the scale."

In 2004 scientists at Durham University also looked at how colour influenced sporting competitiveness. They analysed Olympic combat sports such as boxing, taekwondo, Graeco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling and found that nearly 55 per cent of bouts were won by the competitor in red.

"There is now good experimental evidence that red stimuli are perceived as dominant and that they cause negative effects on performance in those viewing them," said Robert Burton, one of the researchers. "It is plausible that wearing red also makes individuals feel more confident, although this hasn't yet been tested."

Gee fucking wiz lads, I don't know about you lot, but CLEARLY the sky blue must go after that Adelaide game. Showed no passion, no motivation and fuck all when it mattered most. Clearly heart_fan10 and Dylan have been mistaken all along. The sky blue and white combo just puts them in cruise control all game
